How to implement User Profiles #21

I've used an older version of the start kit for a while and I'm currently upgrading to the newest version. However, I noticed that there's no implementation for User Profiles. Did I miss something? I can try to implement them on my own, but do you have any suggestions about how to do this while keeping with your current architecture? I think I have a class called WebProfile, which looks like it was generated from something else. -Chris

Profiles can be implemented using Microsoft's Profile Provider system:

Just add the fields you need to the CreateUser.cshtml & Details.cshtml views, and add code to the UserAdministrationController.cs's CreateUser & Details routes to save the data.
